Having joined the Cognac house’s research laboratory in 1976, Trichet went on to take the post of cellar master in 2003. She has worked closely with Loiseau, a Cognac-born agricultural engineer and oenologist, since he joined Rémy Martin in 2007.

Announcing news of this succession, Rémy Martin’s chairwoman Dominique Hériard Dubreuil and CEO Patrick Piana noted the “indelible mark” Trichet has left on the house. They praised her “exceptional nose” and “daring creativity”, describing Trichet as “a grand lady in terms of her discretion, her candour and her generosity.”
